We've always taken 10% of each value, so the lines would ultimately connect near the horizon.
From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of MFP Design, LLC Sent: Wednesday, August 08, 2018 2:04 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Flow Test Reductions Lets assume a flow test of 100 static, 80 residual, 1500 gpm flow. You are required to reduce it by 10%. Is the reduced flow test 90 / 70 / 1500 or 90/72/1500? I've always done it the first way because that keeps parallel lines. However, I've run into more than a few people doing it the 2nd way lately. Doing that has differing slopes and the lines would intersect. The theoretical reduction could actually have a higher pressure at a given flow with #2 since it is a flatter curve.
